C16 Ceramide (d18:1 (14Z) /16:0)
C16 Ceramide (Cer) (d18:1 (14Z) /16:0) is a sphingosine ceramide composed of long-chain sphingosine (d18:1) and palmitic acid (C16:0) . It is one of the key lipid signaling molecules involved in apoptosis signaling. C16 ceramides are particularly involved in cell cycle arrest, cell death, and insulin signaling inhibition[1].
